Red face Replacement parts for Tungsten Halogen Lamps

Hi! I'm stumped. Have TWO tungsten halogen floor lamps (110V, 300W R7 caps) that need rewiring. Any idea where I can get rewiring kits?
thanks!

Buy new ones. Repairs, probably not worth the effort.

new info

maybe. I just unburied a solid-state element (same in both lamps) made by Klixon -- now called Sensata -- it's a bimetallic thermal sensor that cuts out if things are too hot. Probably has reached the end of its life. If I can get a couple of new ones, it's a very quick and easy fix for two lamps. Pennies save $100. not bad, and worth a try.
